Parkins Mill Homes for Sale and Real Estate

Area Description

Laurens Road and Parkins Mill are two long-established Greenville neighborhoods close to downtown and with ample retail and restaurants of their own. Laurens Road serves as a quick outlet to the heart of Greenville as well as retail corridors like Haywood and Woodruff roads. The homes in the Laurens Road area are a healthy mix of age and size. You can find everything from 1950s bungalows just off the main drags to large new and recently constructed homes in planned subdivisions. In Parkins Mill, homes are often on large lots in master-planned subdivisions. Prices and styles range widely, from one-story brick ranch homes in the Sherwood Forest area to luxury and custom-built homes in the Collins Creek subdivision that can cost well over $1 million.

Around the Area

Laurens Road and Parkins Mill are close to all the hot spots in the Greenville area. Both neighborhoods are a quick drive to Cleveland Park and the Swamp Rabbit Trail, a popular bike and walk trail that may pass through Laurens Road in the future. Also nearby is Haywood Mall, the largest mall in the state of South Carolina with more than 1.3 million square feet of retail and restaurant space.

Nearby downtown Greenville is packed with some of the city’s favorite restaurants and has family-friendly street festivals and farmer’s markets nearly every week of the year.

Wedged between downtown and Laurens Road is the Greenville Zoo, where guests can see giraffes, monkeys and giant tortoises.

Residents don’t have to go far to go out, though. Just off the main Laurens Road thoroughfare is Brewery 85, one of Greenville’s microbreweries. The Whitlee Court brewhouse produces a variety of traditional German beets, including their 864 hefeweizen, named for the Upstate’s area code. Brewery 85 also pours American-style favorites like their GVL IPA and Southern Style Pale Ale.
